World News@lemmy.world•Iran tells world to get ready for oil at $200 a barrel as it fires on commercial shipsEnglish
8·8 hours agoWell of course our babies have been drilling nonstop since Trump arrived so surely production’s gone up 115% to offset the loss of 15 million barrels per day!

Bombings will continue until you pick a leader Trump approves of.
Or until we get rid of Trump.

Technology@lemmy.world•After outages, Amazon to make senior engineers sign off on AI-assisted changesEnglish
2·9 hours agoIt’s usually fine code but it just doesn’t follow the same conventions and flow. It’s kind of like reading a novel typed in block letters written in 3rd person then suddenly it’s cursive letters and 1st person.

Technology@lemmy.world•After outages, Amazon to make senior engineers sign off on AI-assisted changesEnglish
9·14 hours agoSeniors reviewing code is fine but only when, as someone else mentioned, the code writer is learning from the review. The AI doesn’t learn at all and the Jr Dev probably learns very little because they didn’t understand the original code. Reviewing AI code often turns into me rewriting most of it.

Technology@lemmy.world•Warning: Your AI-Generated Password Is a Major Security Risk. Here’s What to Use InsteadEnglish
7·15 hours agoI always say I’m not interested in asking an LLM to add 2 + 2 for me. Of course my managers are always pushing us to use LLMs and coworkers keep suggesting we replace efficient, testable, and consistent processes with AI. If you’re going to use it at least think of scenarios that are hard to code for and it would take you at least 10 min to solve.

21·15 hours agoExcept his backsliding on liberal issues should be a sign he’s another Manchin, Sinema, or Fetterman and he’ll royally fuck us over when it hurts the most.

2·1 day agoMakes sense. Mines don’t recognize friend from foe so laying them means the area is a no-go for everyone.

Technology@lemmy.world•After outages, Amazon to make senior engineers sign off on AI-assisted changesEnglish
1451·1 day agoJunior and mid-level engineers will now require more senior engineers to sign off any AI-assisted changes, Treadwell added.
So instead of getting a human to write it and AI peer reviewing it you want the most expensive per hour developers to look at stuff a human didn’t write and the other engineers can’t explain? Yeah, this is where the efficiency gains disappear.
I read stuff from one of my Jr’s all the time and most of it is made with AI. I don’t understand most of it and neither does the Dev. He keeps saying how much he’s learned from AI but peer programming with him is the pits. I try to say stuff like, “Oops! Looks like we forgot the packages.” And then 10 secs of silence later, “So you can go to line 24 and type…”

Technology@lemmy.world•New York Bill Would Force Age ID Checks at the Device LevelEnglish
2·1 day agoI don’t know what it’s all used for but there is a government site for ID verification already: https://id.me/
Even if Trump wasn’t President I’m not all that comfortable with the US government knowing every time I want to rub one out.
There’s a few cryptographic methods to share this data “blindly” (signatures, zero knowledge proofs, verifiable credentials, etc.) so we’re not putting out more and more about ourselves to be taken advantage of.
As you said the biggest problem is the lobbyists. They don’t represent the people, they represent businesses.

1·1 day agoParents who work full time (and who probably aren’t tech literate enough to do anything more than click the “Enable AdGuard” button when setting up their router, if their router even supports AdGuard) simply won’t have the time or resources.
That’s a capability that most routers don’t have, which is the kind of bills we should be passing except there’s zero upside for big business.




Oh, no! Not Meta! Or Oracle! Or umm, Palantir! Or… guys, help me here.
